The Madison, Wisconsin show at the Barrymore Theater on July 10, 1997, is a bit of a curiosity. The concert was sponsored by "Triple M Radio," 105.5 FM, Madison, as its sixth anniversary party and included acts other than Luther.  At least parts of the show were broadcast (later, I think). This was also a homecoming for Luther, as Madison was his adopted US home (a fact Luther acknowledges on stage). It was Alligator Records' founder and President Bruce Iglauer's fiftieth birthday also acknowledged by Luther on stage as Bruce was in the audience (perhaps ironic since the birthday greeting is included only in the "import" CD that possibly rips-off Alligator). Add to this the facts that Luther had just been diagnosed with terminal lung and brain cancer that day AND that this seems to have turned out to be his last recorded concert. There is DJ banter in spots, please leave intact if trading,

There is some tape noise - more on disc two
